Students can decide just based off of their daily attitude how well they can do in school. A student, who attends class regularly, takes notes, does the homework, and studies daily will be more likely to succeed than another student who refuses to do any of those things. The well rounded student does not rely on resources but their intellect and asks provoking questions in class to make it more interesting. Having a disruptive student in the class will distract the teacher from educating therefore pulling the class farther behind in the necessary curriculum. The Game of School indicates that students are not attending school to pass but rather to complete the work and receive good grades for their transcripts. Kids in my school were notoriously known for cheating on their vocab assignments because they saw it as busy work instead of practice with the new words. My previous classmates in high school were all about passing grades and perfect test scores. Compared to college though, a student is given much less opportunities to ‘skim’ by. If a college student expects to succeed they must be self-motivated and constantly driven to learn because they know they are going to eventually need this material in their future careers. The Game of School is a method to see how much students want to learn or if they are focused on test scores. If students do not put the extra work outside the classroom, it gives the teacher more to teach in class and less time to cover a wide variety of topics. This game could be used to improve schools by creating more discussion based classrooms and more in class activities where students must complete the work. It would not just be an assignment used as point filler. Students need to be motivated and constantly encouraged. It can remind teachers to not focus on a point system but a value system; teach the students the material because it is interesting not because it is being forced upon them or is going to be on next week’s test.
